Simple Newsletter Changes Bump Clicks 190%

I was reading Marketing Sherpa this morning and came across this interesting case study about how a simple change to your newsletter can make all the difference.

This is a great reason to start doing that email testing that you have been putting off because the results can be amazing. Every email that goes out without a split is a missed opportunity to gain insight into your recipients behavior.

SUMMARY: Sometimes even the smallest change can make a world of difference in your email design. See how one publisher transformed a related stories link into a gray utility button and immediately saw a 190% increase in clicks and traffic is up 6% on a different landing page.


It's an easy tweak that if you haven't considered, you may want to test on your own newsletters.

I am in the mid of improving my CTR for the affiliate links in my newsletter. I might try this myself ;)
By the way, did you tried it for your own campaign? And if yes, how was the result?
